December is here, which for many people means it’s time to put up a Christmas tree. Here are some local lots, nurseries, and farms that can help you find that perfect pine, fabulous fir, or sensational spruce.
Sullivan Hardware & Garden
Each of the four locations across town offers a wide variety of real and artificial trees for families to take home. To get even more into the holiday spirit, sign up for a wreath crafting workshop, or book a ride aboard the Sullivan Express at the Keystone location — in addition to family-friendly journeys to meet Santa, it even offers an adult-only beer and wine experience.
DIGS Garden Center
Indy’s only downtown garden center is celebrating with a Christmas tree booth at the Athenaeum Christkindlmarkt. If you get a tree from them, yule not only get a wonderful tree, but you’ll also get complimentary post-Christmas tree porch pickup + an exclusive invitation to its Let It Go winter event on Friday, Jan. 10.
Alice’s Garden
This local garden center has trees from 3 to 12 ft in stock and ready to spruce up neighborhood homes. The team at Alice’s can even deliver and set up your tree for you.
Gore’s Christmas Trees
Since 1962, Gore’s has been serving all of Indy’s festive foliage needs with seven different varieties of trees to choose from, ranging from 5 to 19 ft. The lot also sells wreaths and garlands.
Dull’s Tree Farm
This tree farm in Thorntown is fun to visit even if you’re not picking up a tree — there are lots of fun photo ops and it’ll make you feel like you’re in a Hallmark movie. But if you are there on a mission for the perfect tree, you’ll enjoy a wagon ride out to the field and back to choose your tree. Pre-cut trees will also be up by our tree processing area.
Watts Christmas Tree Farm
Located at Trader’s Point Creamery in Zionsville, Watts is well worth the drive. After you pick out your tree, stop into the creamery for a cup of fresh eggnog or take a farm tour to meet some of the herd.
Lost Forty Tree Farm
Prefer to cut your own tree? Drive out to this Greenfield farm known for its full, healthy trees — you can bring your own chainsaw or borrow a handsaw for free.
